My dear Sir:
I am just able to ship to you by express the electros of the nighthawk and mourning dove. I will not be able to ship the electro of the meadowlark before the 15th; perhaps I might be able to do so on the 13th; I have had a great deal of difficulty with this circular.
Very truly yours,
Wm Dutcher Chairman.
